Tim notes the UK has seen the highest ever recorded Covid-19 cases, an increase of 47% in a week! #ToryCovidDisaster 
1 in 24 people in Britain currently have Covid-19. The highest rates are in London, Scotland and the South-East.
Deaths however are below the average for this time of year, so at least its not killing so many of us. Still, 622 dead in the last week... imagine if that was on planes or trains? We'd be outraged!
Nearly 1500 a day admitted to hospital, and nearly 300 on ventilators.
Worryingly, it's starting to mount up in the older age groups - those most vulnerable.

We're only recording a sixth of the actual numbers so these international comparisons show the UK in an artificially good position, Tim says.
In other words, Grant Shapps is wrong, it is NOT the safest time to travel for years.
